Synapse is a flexible and fast BitTorrent daemon.
It currently supports most systems which implement epoll or kqueue, with a focus on 64-bit linux servers.
A list of packages can be found on this wiki page.
Install dependencies:
Synapse and sycli can be installed with:
cargo build --release --all
cargo install --path .
cargo install --path ./sycli/
If you'd just like to install sycli:
cargo build --release -p sycli
cargo install --path ./sycli/
Synapse expects its configuration file to be present at $XDG_CONFIG_DIR/synapse.toml
,
or ~/.config/synapse.toml
.
If it is not present or invalid, a default configuration will be used.
These defaults are given in example_config.toml
.
Sycli can be configured in a similar manner, using sycli.toml
.
Copy share/synapse/applications/synapse.desktop
to $XDG_DATA_HOME/applications
or ~/.local/share/applications
.
XDG MIME Applications example configuration:
~/.config/mimeapps.list
[Default Applications]
x-scheme-handler/magnet=synapse.desktop
